Hi Ashley, thank you for sharing this video. It is really courageous of you to do so. I enjoyed watching it and you are not alone. I know friends who left their high-paying, jet-setting jobs at their peaks of their careers. Most of the reasons for quitting are one or a combination of the following reasons: 1) Health, 2) Family and 3) Fulfillment. I believe you have make the choice that is best for you. There is no right or wrong choice. All the best. :)
Hi Ray, thank you for your compliment! Wow, i just visited your page! you are a musician! Nice piano play. I'm also a pianist, but not at your level :)))) I'll listen to more of your music 💕
I strongly agreed your way . Be yourself , money is important, but money cannot turn back the clock. For myself, healthy , happiness and freedom more important than money .
I’d like to be honest … my parents once told me “ what is success ?is it climbing the corporate ladder at the risk of your health ? Or leading the simple life getting married and settling down? Even what use is a fruit that look so ugly and not nutritious but is high up in the tree ? It is better that the fruit is close to the ground and looks beautifully ripe .”
Thank you, I will. Appreciate you visit my channel again :) Feel free to share with my videos with those who may need help like this. Happy to help and share!

Thanks Jaime for your courage. You make the right point that we need to feel we have nothing to lose. That’s when we can start finding the purpose 😊 I even wrote this sentence on my book. So happy to hear this from you!!
Thank you very much for sharing! It’s really amazing! I felt the same especially during the covid period and quit my job last year searching for the meaning in life as well as how to create an impact to others.
I was away for a while as your video starts to have too many ads, but I'm back again after this ad-free episode. I'm very proud of you, you're like my kid sister. Totally agreed we need to do work that have IMPACT on people lives. I'm on the same job for the last 26 years but it give me a lot of pleasure to "help" or "feed" people thru my job directly or indirectly. I feel you completely ! Best of lucks ! You Go Girl !!!

Hi Atlas, thank you for your blessing . i hope you do the same. i just got my 2nd shot vaccine. not sure if you are on my IG. but i posted some side effect 😂
i can relate to your situation as in how difficult it can be when someone is paid so good but at the expense of his/her mental health. But at the end of the day it's life and we need to live not work for things like some lackeys. Brave heart... brave decision...!
Excellent video. I too have an MBA and worked my ass off. Now I am much happier with my government job! Me and my wife were watching your other video about quarantining in Singapore. We are currently in quarantine in Singapore as well. We got her last weekend. So only 7 days to go. I am starting a new job here and love Singapore. I have subscribed to your channel and please keep up the good work.
oh wow really? that's amazing we are the same experience?!? unbelievable!! i'm so happy to meet you and your wife!! where are you quarantine now? what will you be doing in SG? Welcome to SG!!!
We are at Hotel Jen. We are stuck here another week. I will be working in Sembawang at the Navy Base. We are also buying a condo out there as well. I can’t believe how f@&king expensive an 808 square foot (75 SQM) condo costs out here. Stay in touch

Thanks Chris!! appreciate your compliments and support! welcome to my channel. Hope to see you again. Perhaps you can check out a few of my other personal development videos and that may help you understand why i made these decisions: th-cam.com/video/GNKlQtRX2II/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/Sq8HTS8-77I/w-d-xo.html
Do not feel down, come back to Singapore, and eat your favourite fares. This is simple but true - My health improves a lot after drinking adequate amount of water and cutting down on refined sugar (inflammation). Engage in strenuous exercise and stay positive.
Finding a sustainable career is important that balances health and satisfaction. The part of staying in the Ritz and taking the first/last flights out resonated with me as I did those as well. Crazy hours, working in a taxi while trying to catch a flight and that stuff. I remember one trip to China and I was sick and alone before my flight out. My health suffered.
Oh wow it’s great that you resonated! I was staying at Ritz at China too! For long time! Do you also work in PE? Thank you for subscribing to my channel 🙏
I really like u choosing peace over being overworked giving u good money .. only a few can take dat leap and understand that life can be very simple and peaceful with less money . Working to raise ur life style which eventually u have no time to enjoy . 👍
Is to learn the lession in ours life.No every people go yours life so easily.Also that have the difficulties to overcome.Need the pentience,and perseverance.
Hello Albert. Thank you for your comment. It's very true that we need to overcome a lot of difficulties in our life. perseverance is important, but we should insist on doing the right thing, not the wrong thing :)
One of the hardest decisions in life...quitting a good paying job! It requires a lot of courage, but it’s important to learn that money isn’t everything. Well done!! 👍
Oof this one hits a soft spot with me, and I had many of these thoughts as well before I took the leap a few months ago. I wasn't making your kind of money, but I found the side projects I was doing with SMBs was much more fulfilling and more challenging as well. I haven't "made it" yet, but i am thankful to be able to look at people such as yourself during the days when I question the length of the journey I have in front of me.
Why in this world would you be embarrassed with your accomplishments. KK you are looked up to by many successful people. People who have accomplished difficult task in their own lives , who are now looking up to you . It is way harder to quit a high pay job to chase your dreams than it is to continue with a job that’s literally killing you . I owned printing companies for many years . During that time I made difficult decisions that would have made me a lot of money. I decided to not be a part of paying a purchasing agent under the table money so I could get big contracts. I wanted to be able to keep my morals . You made choices also and they were good ones . Great video ! Great job
Hi Craig. salut to you too on insisting in your own ethics! if we don't have a soul, what else can we have, right? it's so amazing that you are still doing so well after rejecting many businesses from those people before. that's a big achievement for you in life! and of course, now you got doctor and lawyer kids :)))) Thank you for always supporting me on my journey and whatever i do. really appreciate it! since you are so supportive, you should be part of my Patreon club :) we would love to have you! 😃 Have a great weekend!
Yes, I can empathise with you why it is so hard to tell a story like this. Thank you for sharing your story! My value and impact is to bring out the sights in my home town and I started a new youtube channel "Equator Garden" last week. Hope you can come to Can Meh Lah Island soon.
Thanks for the opinions and sharing. I have been contemplating on job change. You highlighted an important point. What is my purpose and who can I impact in life? Lastly health is indeed important. Stay healthy and stay happy koala.
You are absolutely right and your video content is so meaningful. Like what others said " Teach your child how to be happy, not teach your child how to become rich." 😊
This video alone does not effectively portray who you are but only one fine piece of you. I have watched most, if not all, of your videos and tried piecing many sides of you together (not that I do not have things to do). I profusely think that you should have been the First Lady (or the Queen) of a nation because of who you are ❤️ To always be loved, protected and adored 👸🏼
Oh haha 😅thank you Zack!! 🙏🙏🙏 it’s funny that you mentioned First Lady. When I was young, I really wanted to be First Lady 😂😂 and I thought I should 🤣🤣🤣
Koala, although not in the context of a nation, you already are a First Lady in numerous people's hearts and you will become the people's First Lady 👸🏼 Only time is needed for people to get to know you and see who you really are ❤️
Dear Ashley, I feel that both of us can be really good friends 🥰Just bought your book “One Million Miles” on Kindle and couldn’t wait to read it. Thank you with 💗 from a Singaporean who returned to 🇸🇬 from overseas
Thank you. I started watching this channel and really like it. Am from a similar background and can understand the non stop deals, hotel room service during 1am nights and health deterioration. Would really great to have a chance to catch coffee sometime. Hope to hear from you!
You are the only person I had ever seen with so much heart for others and you are living a marvelous meaningful life! I fully support you till last! I wishing you all the best in life! Professional or not professional in your yutubing is not the key…the most important key is you are very sincere and loving! I had failed many time in my life but I still fight till death for success. I am a marine biologist and gemologist.

We are currently in quarantine in Singapore as well. We got her last weekend. So only 7 days to go. I am starting a new job here and love Singapore. I have subscribed to your channel and please keep up the good work.
oh wow really? that's amazing we are the same experience?!? unbelievable!! i'm so happy to meet you and your wife!! where are you quarantine now? what will you be doing in SG? Welcome to SG!!!
We are at Hotel Jen. We are stuck here another week. I will be working in Sembawang at the Navy Base. We are also buying a condo out there as well. I can’t believe how f@&king expensive an 808 square foot (75 SQM) condo costs out here. Stay in touch
@@raymondblagmoncertifiedpub5533 oh wow I’m next door to you right now. Orchard. How much is the condo?
@@TheKrazyKoala my condo is 1,025,000 Singapore dollars. And I am being told that is on the cheap end.

Do not feel down, come back to Singapore, and eat your favourite fares. This is simple but true - My health improves a lot after drinking adequate amount of water and cutting down on refined sugar (inflammation). Engage in strenuous exercise and stay positive.
Oh thank you 🙏 what you said is true. I do need to cut down on sugar. I have a sweet tooth and this is my goal this year.
This video is Amazing, 11k views already, Congrats, KK!
Thanks David 😁I didn’t expect it either 😀
Money and luxurious Lifestyle can Never Make your Heart and Soul happy
Good Job KK💪

@@jnet6 good night
Finding a sustainable career is important that balances health and satisfaction. The part of staying in the Ritz and taking the first/last flights out resonated with me as I did those as well. Crazy hours, working in a taxi while trying to catch a flight and that stuff. I remember one trip to China and I was sick and alone before my flight out. My health suffered.
Oh wow it’s great that you resonated! I was staying at Ritz at China too! For long time! Do you also work in PE? Thank you for subscribing to my channel 🙏

I really like u choosing peace over being overworked giving u good money .. only a few can take dat leap and understand that life can be very simple and peaceful with less money . Working to raise ur life style which eventually u have no time to enjoy . 👍
Thank you dear. feel free to share my video with like minded people!

Hello Albert. Thank you for your comment. It's very true that we need to overcome a lot of difficulties in our life. perseverance is important, but we should insist on doing the right thing, not the wrong thing :)
Sorry,is need the patience and constant heart.
Thank you for sharing your story Krazy Koala🥰🌸
you inspired me..
You are so welcome. thank you for subscribing to my channel. hope to see you on my other videos
One of the hardest decisions in life...quitting a good paying job! It requires a lot of courage, but it’s important to learn that money isn’t everything. Well done!! 👍
Thank you Co Co!! did you ever quit your job like this?
@@kksuccess111 not over $350k! Well I haven’t made $350k yet! 😂
👍👍👍 Great and inspirational vlog.
Blessings from Kuching, Malaysia.
God bless you sweetheart. You are a shining star! Love and Best Wishes Always!
Hi Steward, Thank you! You too! Appreciate you subscribe to my channel. God bless you. See you on other videos!
great sharing ! looking forward to more of such content :)
More to come! of course :)))) feel free to share the video if you think it might help others or inspire others 😃
Oof this one hits a soft spot with me, and I had many of these thoughts as well before I took the leap a few months ago. I wasn't making your kind of money, but I found the side projects I was doing with SMBs was much more fulfilling and more challenging as well. I haven't "made it" yet, but i am thankful to be able to look at people such as yourself during the days when I question the length of the journey I have in front of me.
you rock! you've made the change and making yourself a happier journey, i hope ❤️ i'm sure you are learning a lot and now in your new home :))))
Why in this world would you be embarrassed with your accomplishments. KK you are looked up to by many successful people. People who have accomplished difficult task in their own lives , who are now looking up to you . It is way harder to quit a high pay job to chase your dreams than it is to continue with a job that’s literally killing you . I owned printing companies for many years . During that time I made difficult decisions that would have made me a lot of money. I decided to not be a part of paying a purchasing agent under the table money so I could get big contracts. I wanted to be able to keep my morals . You made choices also and they were good ones . Great video ! Great job
Hi Craig. salut to you too on insisting in your own ethics! if we don't have a soul, what else can we have, right? it's so amazing that you are still doing so well after rejecting many businesses from those people before. that's a big achievement for you in life! and of course, now you got doctor and lawyer kids :))))
Thank you for always supporting me on my journey and whatever i do. really appreciate it! since you are so supportive, you should be part of my Patreon club :) we would love to have you! 😃 Have a great weekend!
Yes, I can empathise with you why it is so hard to tell a story like this. Thank you for sharing your story! My value and impact is to bring out the sights in my home town and I started a new youtube channel "Equator Garden" last week. Hope you can come to Can Meh Lah Island soon.
Thank you a lot!! Where’s your home town!? Plz send me the link of your channel!! Hope it will go well ❤️❤️🥰
I was born, raised and worked in Singapore. Enjoy this MRT train journey I filmed yesterday!

Thanks for the opinions and sharing. I have been contemplating on job change. You highlighted an important point. What is my purpose and who can I impact in life? Lastly health is indeed important. Stay healthy and stay happy koala.
You are so welcome 🤗🐨🥟 good morning! Wish you the same! Think carefully on your career :) if it’s helpful, feel free to share my videos :)
You are absolutely right and your video content is so meaningful. Like what others said " Teach your child how to be happy, not teach your child how to become rich." 😊
aww thank you James. then plz share the video with the Youth and the parents too :)
You're an amazing woman!
awww thank you dear!!! 💕 💕
This video alone does not effectively portray who you are but only one fine piece of you.
I have watched most, if not all, of your videos and tried piecing many sides of you together (not that I do not have things to do).
I profusely think that you should have been the First Lady (or the Queen) of a nation because of who you are ❤️
To always be loved, protected and adored 👸🏼
Oh haha 😅thank you Zack!! 🙏🙏🙏 it’s funny that you mentioned First Lady. When I was young, I really wanted to be First Lady 😂😂 and I thought I should 🤣🤣🤣
Koala, although not in the context of a nation, you already are a First Lady in numerous people's hearts and you will become the people's First Lady 👸🏼
Only time is needed for people to get to know you and see who you really are ❤️
@@JJZachary haha 😂 that's so cute. i would love to be people's First Lady. it's my honor to become one ❤️
I started to like you and your video with the value you shared. Glamour lives work with INTJ but not 80H working tho. 加油⛽
thank you for your support 😀
Dear Ashley, I feel that both of us can be really good friends 🥰Just bought your book “One Million Miles” on Kindle and couldn’t wait to read it. Thank you with 💗 from a Singaporean who returned to 🇸🇬 from overseas
awww thank you a lot Aili. That's so supportive of you. !! 💕
Thank you. I started watching this channel and really like it. Am from a similar background and can understand the non stop deals, hotel room service during 1am nights and health deterioration. Would really great to have a chance to catch coffee sometime. Hope to hear from you!
awww thank you so much!!! i'm very happy to share!! it would be great if you can share with like-minded people to discover my channel too 😃
Been there.. done that... I too gave up everything and started from zero. Today... no regrets

You are the only person I had ever seen with so much heart for others and you are living a marvelous meaningful life! I fully support you till last! I wishing you all the best in life! Professional or not professional in your yutubing is not the key…the most important key is you are very sincere and loving! I had failed many time in my life but I still fight till death for success.
